3.To prevent the output image from chipping during AutoCrop Boundary processing, select “Round Up”, and select “Round Down” to delete unnecessary details.

To prevent the marginal data from being lost or minimize shadows on the bottom or right edge of the data during the AutoCrop Boundary processing, select [Optimize].

ATTENTION

•When the document is scanned with “Round Down” selected, the charac- ters in the vicinity of the rear end of the document, if any, may be cut out.

•Selecting “Round Up” can prevent data from chipping, but it may generate black lines near the rear end.

•Some applications may display scanned image data incorrectly when [Optimize] is selected. In such a case, select [Normal].

•For details on how to set the Automatic Page Size Detection setting, refer to “3.8 Correcting skewed Documents” on page 84.
